Slumdog Billionaire Husband novel Chapter 177

Chapter 177 He Is So Rich

Gerald’s voice was very calm. He said indifferently, “320 million dollars.”

Everyone was shocked when they heard what Gerald said.

For an instant, all those present burst into an uproar.

They were not surprised that Gerald raised the price.

Anyway, it seemed normal for him to raise the price again. After all, they were somewhat numb to the price, because the price was always being raised.

But this time, the increase in the price directly doubled, which surprised everyone.

Everyone, including Chad, at that time, looked dumbfounded.

Just now, a smile appeared on Chad’s face. He was mocking these rich people in his heart. He thought, they are ignorant fools. If I buy this knife for 16 million dollars, whether it is for my own use or selling it to the people underground, I can make a lot of money.

But now, someone made an offer, and the price directly doubled.

Chad was a doctor. He was very famous in Washington. He served many rich people. He charged a lot of money for the treatment.

In order to save their lives, many rich people were willing to pay Chad extremely high medical fees. In addition, Chad’s teacher was quite rich.

However, Chad wasn’t a top rich guy. All of his assets added up to nearly 160 million dollars.

Gerald’s price made Chad a little helpless.

Almost everyone looked at Gerald.

Gerald subconsciously covered his face with his hands, and so did Carolyn.

They did not want to be discovered by others.

However, Chad recognized Gerald at a glance.

“It’s him again!” There was a cold look in Chad’s eyes.

At the same time, the people who had made offers previously looked at Gerald with very unfriendly gazes.

The knife was ranked in the top ten of the underworld arms list. It was not something that could be measured by money.

However, at the auction, Gerald used the money to measure the knife, and they could not offer a higher price.

Chad was a little unwilling. He gritted his teeth and stood up. He looked at Gerald and said, “Sir, we have met before. Can you not compete with me and let me have this knife? I really like this knife.”

Gerald sneered. Gerald had a bad impression of Chad. If not for Abraham stopping Gerald, Chad would

probably have been beaten up by Gerald in the afternoon.

Gerald covered his mouth and nose and said indifferently, “Why should I do that? Who do you think you are?”

Those present were in an uproar again.

Chad enjoyed great popularity. At that time, a rich man seemed to be unable to stand Gerald. He chuckled and said, “Dr. Kempton, if you really like this knife, you can bid with him. I can lend you 176 million dollars. Just let your teacher return the money to me later.”

The hostess listened to their discussion. She became more and more excited. She slowed down the speed of

dropping the hammer.

“320 million dollars, once!”

“320 million dollars, twice…”

“330 million dollars.”

Chad said, “Okay, I will borrow the money from you. When I go back, I will tell my teacher about it. I will definitely return the money to you.” Chad then gritted his teeth and raised his card, saying, “336 million

dollars.”

Gerald sneered and raised the card again. He said lightly, “500 million dollars.”

Gerald had Chad pinned down on the price. Gerald raised the price by close to 160 million dollars each time.

This time, the increase in price caused an uproar once again.

“Oh my gosh! He’s crazy! He’s really crazy!”

“What kind of background does this guy have?”

“Why is he willing to spend so much money on a knife? That’s a lot of money. How many of us here have that

much money?”

“It’s 500 million dollars in cash, not only a string of numbers.”

“He is so rich.”

Chad was also stunned. Cold sweat began to appear on his forehead.

Gerald seemed to want to compete with Chad to the end and to get the knife for sure.

That was exactly what Gerald was thinking. He was even willing to sacrifice the entire Universe Group for

this.

Universe Group was a company with a market value of over 16 billion dollars, and 500 million dollars was only a small amount of money compared with that.

“500 million dollars first!”

“500 million dollars second!”

The hostess was still looking forward to someone increasing the price.

The higher the transaction price, the higher the commission she would get.

But what disappointed her was that no one increased the price.

No one took the initiative to lend money to Chad.

They knew Chad’s ability. He could afford to pay back 160 million dollars, but any more than that would be

difficult for him to pay back.

Moreover, most people thought that it was not worth it to spend more than 16 million dollars to buy this
